Question

Why does water need conservation even though large oceans surround the land masses?

Answer 1

Heya!!

Here's the answer for your question.

Water is needed to be conserved even though large oceans surround the land masses, because less than 1% of the total water content is freshwater which can be consumed by humans. The rest of the large ocean water is too salty for human consumption.
